NATHAN ANGELO, PJ MORTON, JIMI CRAVITIY and STEVE MEANS
The Atlanta-based soul-singing pianist NATHAN ANGELO has been making his hometown proud for years. Currently on tour across the US, Nathan returns to Smith's Olde Bar for a night of jams that will keep the crowd singing, swaying and falling in love.
Songwriter, producer and musical prodigy are all acceptable titles on PJ MORTON'S business card. The Grammy-award winner has worked with an array of musicians including India Arie, Jermaine Dupree and Musiq Soulchild. Influenced at a young age by The Beatles and James Taylor, PJ describes his own music as somewhere between Stevie Wonder and Sting – and we like the sound of that!
Fresh Atlanta local singer-songwriter JIMI CRAVITY kicks his set off with a sweet batch of musical storytelling tunes.
Nashville's STEVE MEANS starts the night with a heavy dose of smooth-like-butter songs. This is the perfect night for impressing that special someone that might still be bitter about the not-so-special V-Day gift!
DOORS at 8PM - $10 in ADV - $12 at DOOR - www.myspace.com/nathanangelo // www.myspace.com/pjmorton // www.myspace.com/jimicravity // www.myspace.com/stevemeans
